• Notes

  Birth name was registered as Beatrice Louisa Baillie. Used the name Baillie when marrying Alberto Boccardo.Used the name Baillie-Hamilton as her maiden name when registering the birth of Diane Boccardo. Also used the name Baillie Hamilton at the marriage ceremony with John Collier.Named Baillie-Boccardo in marriage annulment documents in the National Archives. Although Alberto Boccardo petitioned for divorce in 1914 no decree absolute recorded so that the marriage to John Collier was annulled. Her fifth child was John Cowan born in 1918 who was told that his father had been killed in the 1914-1918 war. Photograph of father showed him to be an officer in cavalry breeches and uniform of the Royal Engineers. No registration in England of a John Cowan born 1918 and no record of a marriage ceremony.
